As a Writer at the IEP

As a Writer at the IEP, you'll research and write original articles that make economics relevant to a global audience. We want clear thinking, strong opinions, and writing that sparks conversation.

What success in this role looks like

Consistently delivering well-researched, clearly written pieces on deadline, growing your ability to explain complex economic ideas in plain language, and contributing to the publication.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
